Knowledge-management apps gaining traction

Today's seemingly unlimited amount of information - online news, social media, daily emails and a lot of other open data and shared information - makes knowledge management applications a must-have tool, judging by their growing popularity with Chinese netizens.

Yinxiang Biji, a Beijing-based information-organizing platform, is one such knowledge management tool that is gaining traction with younger Chinese netizens.

"I use Yinxiang Biji every day to store and classify my experimental data and materials," said Leo Zhang, a 29-year-old doctoral candidate in Beijing. "It's a good repository to organize notes, documents and reference materials. And I can access the notes via multiple devices like smartphones or a personal computer."
